Wonder if PP changed their agreement with the pharmacies selling the cards? Walgreens did the same thing several months ago as well. Maybe some sort of subsidy to cover interchange fees got axed? Wish we had someone on the inside...

If u call Paypal cash (855) 721-5035 they will tell you all mycash cards will be "pulled off the shelves " at midnight tonight. If you call Paypal they will tell you that you can print a bar code from your online account and take it to cvs etc to load your account. My guess is it's cash only.
There goes the ppdmc scheme.

Okay, I just got off the phone with Paypal. They are ending the Paypal MyCash cards effective immediately. There is now an updated way to get money onto your Paypal account: Paypal Cash.

Basically, log in to your Paypal account, look on the left hand menu where you see your balance, and you should see "Add Money". Click that. Now, you'll see the option to add from your bank account, or Paypal Cash. Click that. You'll be presented with options for stores that will do this for you, choose one and you'll be presented with a barcode. Take that barcode to the store, they'll scan it and you pay. The money should be added to your Paypal account instantly. There is still a $3.95 fee. The lady I talked to suggested that we have the barcode on our phones.

Also, in order to do this, you'll need to have your Paypal account associated with your social security number.

Anyone want to be the Guinea Pig? :-p

It had been that way for quite some time. Additionally, there was no wait for the funds to get added to your PayPal account after the initial purchase of the PPMC card. Every load after the initial was added to your PayPal account instantly.

Had same experience while visiting a Chicago CVS. Later on I searched and found this...

Tried at CVS today.
Confirmed paypal my cash is obsolete.
Scan the bar code from PayPal website is cash only (cash only pop up at the display)
Other gift card is as usual, can be purchased with credit card.

Similar to HELLO, but with a twist!
